There's red cherries, redcurrant and plums on the nose (some initial funk but that blew off). The palate is finely structured, with a nice interplay of sweet and sour notes, fine tannins and a firm acid line. The finish has more fruit and some smoke note. A quality Barbera.

Smells of primary fermentation, and new oak, and not much else. Drunk too young, perhaps. Though it's a low-tannin, soft, easy-drinking style, offering typical dark red-berry fruit and jammy flavours, and a medium-length aftertaste. Maybe this speaks to my inexperience with this style, but I could easily confuse this with a warm vintage Barossa Shiraz. Very over-priced and poor value at this stage, but may evolve in time.

Underbar mörk plommonfrukt, fräsch fin syra för att vara en Barbera och bra längd.
En riktigt bra Barbera
